Association Between Individualized Education for Kidney Replacement Therapy Modality Selection and Peritoneal Dialysis Initiation: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Neural Network Direct Control with Online Learning for Shape Memory Alloy Manipulators

open access: yesSensors, 2019
New actuators and materials are constantly incorporated into industrial processes, and additional challenges are posed by their complex behavior. Nonlinear hysteresis is commonly found in shape memory alloys, and the inclusion of a suitable hysteresis ...

Calculation of the force and kinematic parameters of the transfer mechanism based on a twisted arm chain

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Research, 2022
Introduction. The paper presents a brief kinematic analysis, as well as the application of D'Alembert's principle to finding the relationship between the force parameters in the transmission mechanism of a robotic manipulator constructed from a twisted ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Cooperative Motion Generation in a Distributed Network of Redundant Robot Manipulators With Noises

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Systems, Man & Cybernetics. Systems, 2018
In this paper, a distributed scheme is proposed for the cooperative motion generation in a distributed network of multiple redundant manipulators. The proposed scheme can simultaneously achieve the specified primary task to reach global cooperation under

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Velocity Estimation of Robot Manipulators: An Experimental Comparison

open access: yesIEEE Open Journal of Control Systems, 2023
Accurate velocity information is often essential to the control of robot manipulators, especially for precise tracking of fast trajectories. However, joint velocities are rarely directly measured and instead estimated to save costs. While many approaches

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.
